WILLIAM WEBER, or CINCINNATI, 01110.

Letters Patent No..91,886, dated June 29, 1869.

IMPROVED MEDICAL COMPOUND.

The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the lame.

To all whom it may concern Be it 'known that I, WILLIAM WEBER, of Cincinuati, in the county of Hamilton, and State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Medical Compound;

and I do hereby declare the following to be a full and nesia alba to produce a moist powder.

This powder is mixed with such. an amount of ninety-four and a half percenthaloohol, devoid of empyreurnatic oil, as to produce, after filtering, one pint of fluid.

This fluid is then the essence of celery, with which the cordial and hitters are produced.

For the cordial, I take five pints of ninety per cent.

alcohol, devoid of empyreumatic oil, and thoroughly mix it with a pint and a half of sirup, from the finest quality of sugar, and from three to four pints of water. To this mixture, I add so much of the essence of celery, above described, as will suit the taste 0!: the person using it. The liquor or cordial thus obtained is an agreeable drink, and very healthy. 7

To produce the hitters for medical purposes, make a mixture of one ounce of agaricns, one pint of forty-- five per cent. alcohol, and suflicient quantity of solution of indigo and tincture of Flora calend'ulm to give a coloring, and add to this mixture sufficient essence .of celery to produce a strong flavor of the same.

This bitter-s I have found to be an excellent remedy for diseases of the kidneys, the bladder, liver, and spleen,

as well as dyspepsia, dropsy, and sexual debilit-y, the medical qualities of the celery being augmented by the compound.

Having thus described my invention,

What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, isp I ,1. The essence of celery, when compounded of the ingredients and in the proportions substantially as described.

2. The celery-cordial, when compounded of the ingredients and in the proportions substantially as described.

3. The celery bitters, when compounded of the ingredients and in the proportions substantially as described.

Witnesses: -WILL. WEBER.
